Acura Key
Does anyone know where you can get an Acura uncut key? The one that the owner gave me is beat to hell. The remote is fine though. Also, can't you just get them duplicated at walmart?

With your 99, you will want to get a chipped key, you can get them off ebay, but you gotta get it programmed for your car because of the chip. Or just bite the bullet and go to the dealership

From my exp. because I had this done you have to get a jkey from a dealer or a locksmith that has the programable key that has the chip in it.. The other thing is the dealer will charge $38 and the another $100 bucks to program it!!

One thing u can do is what I did!! I went to the dealer with an unprogrammed key and a programmed key. I went to the service area and acted like i needed one of the techs to do a ride along and make sure my tranny was in good order and when we were chat'n I asked him to program it and he said sure for $20 and I walked outta there with 2 programmed keys!! Now thats Thinking!! CHoa!!
